Jon Simons is a counsellor with nine years of experience based in the United Kingdom. He offers calm, direct support for people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship and family difficulties. He also helps with sleep problems, work and career concerns, addictions, grief and broader life changes.

Jon is listed with NCPS, which appears after his name as a professional credential. People choose Jon when they want someone who will listen closely and also challenge unhelpful patterns.

Background and approach

He keeps sessions practical and focused on what matters now. Expect straightforward conversation about goals, steps you can try between sessions, and checks on what’s working. Jon blends several approaches to meet each person’s needs.

He draws on attachment-focused ideas to look at how past relationships shape current feelings. He uses cognitive behavioural tools to help spot and reframe unhelpful thoughts. His style is client-centred, so the person sets the pace and focus.

He aims to be flexible about timing and the structure of sessions so therapy can fit real life. Jon works with people dealing with parenting strain, ADHD, autism and blended family issues among other concerns. He also offers coaching for career questions and life direction.

Sessions begin with a short conversation about priorities and goals. From there Jon and the client make a plan that can include practical exercises, insight work and motivational conversations. He describes himself as understanding but willing to challenge when that will help progress.

How his approaches translate to online counselling

Jon draws on attachment-based work to look at how close relationships shape feelings and reactions, which can help when patterns in current relationships cause distress. Client-centred therapy is about following the person’s pace and priorities, giving space to talk and to decide what change looks like. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behaviour changes to improve mood and daily routine.

Finding the right way to work together is part of the process. Jon will discuss goals, preferences and what feels useful, then agree a plan that mixes insight, practical tasks and coaching. He views therapy as a collaborative effort and adjusts methods based on how someone responds.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when that suits your schedule. It can also make it simpler to involve practical worksheets or exercises between sessions, and to keep therapy consistent through life changes.
